Bianca Medina, LMFT, LPCC
Hi there! Welcome.
I’m Bianca. I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist and licensed professional clinical counselor. I am passionate about joining clients on their healing journey by providing a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space. As a trauma-informed therapist, my areas of specialty are eating disorders, PTSD, complex PSTD, dissociation, anxiety, depression, and young adults.
I am trained in EMDR therapy and specialize in the treatment of eating disorders. Prior to working in private practice, I worked in treatment centers which focused primarily on the treating individuals working towards eating disorder recovery. I have experience working in all levels of care and with various presentations of mental health disorders and struggles.
I know that showing up in the therapeutic space can be challenging and overwhelming, so I bring in compassion and validation while collaborating and working towards your goals.
Working with Bianca
-
Individual therapy
As a clinician, I approach my work with my clients from a client-centered approach and a trauma-informed lens. I pull from a combination of evidence-based modalities and therapeutic approaches , some of which include DBT, CBT, psychodynamic, mindfulness and humanistic approach.
Showing up in the therapeutic space is vulnerable. And I feel privileged to be on the healing journey with my clients. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal.
